Step tenth - get rid of XX

"Tell me!" Taeil rushed when Jaehyun was very unclear with his answer.

Jaehyun was shocked to see Taeil in front of his apartment an hour after sending him off to Doyoung's apartment. The fact that Johnny was sitting in the living room, completely relaxed in his boxer and a sleeveless tank top. Jaehyun was also in a similar state, and Taeil can't help but get upset. Why is everyone naked!?

Johnny shared a cold glance at Taeil before stepping outside of Jaehyun's apartment without the man asking him too, Jaehyun was completely terrified by the way Taeil was eyeing him. He knows Taeil doesn't have feeling for Johnny anymore but seeing his best friend sleeping with his ex-boyfriend - not even a year-old ex - that will be a little awkward. For Jaehyun at least.

Jaehyun is very careful with his relationship with Johnny but it seems like he can't and will never be able to keep it away from Taeil.

"I don't know!" Jaehyun answered copying Taeil's tone.

Taeil was asking if Jaehyun know anything about Doyoung and Taeyong's friendship. Jaehyun have cousin that work in the industry and he had been in relationship with Johnny for quite a while now - he sure knows something!

Taeil never think much about Taeyong before. He was just a member of the group; he is just a leader for Doyoung. Now thinking about it again, Doyoung talk so much about Taeyong. So much more than he talks about any other member. Clearly, Taeyong is special for him.

There is so much more he doesn't know about Doyoung even though it seems like Doyoung was honest enough - turn out it was Taeil brushing things off because it didn't concern him. Now, Taeyong is his concern. He needs to know about Taeyong but not from Doyoung's lips.

Doyoung really look up to Taeyong, he talks highly of Taeyong, in multiple interview he mentioned Taeyong as his number one supporter. Taeil's hands tremble on his way to Jaehyun's apartment when he saw one of the trending tags under Doyoung's name was 'dotae'. So many posts under the tag explaining, reading the best friend relationship. Doyoung never denied it once.

Almost half of Doyoung solo's discography was produced by Taeyong. Will Taeyong write song for Doyoung this time too?

Jaehyun should know more! Jaehyun is very detailed person, he wouldn't date anyone without properly knowing about them. He is good at reading others expression too. He had been in a relationship with Johnny the moment Taeil broke up with him. He should know!

Johnny isn't the type to talk about other people, unlike Doyoung - Johnny is very careful when he talks about other. Taeil know this too but he was so scared about the possibility that Doyoung and Taeyong used to be in relationship and there is still lingering feeling.

Taeil wanted to do well this time. He loves Doyoung so much.

Jaehyun manage to calm his best friend down, slowly explaining what he knows. And it's just the same thing from Taeil's knowledge. They don't know these people, all information was from the internet and some of it might be wrong, some of it probably staged.

"It's raining, that's probably why they changed," Jaehyun tried to convince Taeil.

Ah.. it did rain. Taeil was too focused on the plan he had in his head to notice.

Taeil pulled his phone and reading the pop out notification, Doyoung was explaining himself and apologize if his action confuses Taeil. He also said he will come and get Taeil if he wants. Even in time like this, Doyoung still takes consent seriously.

Maybe Taeil was overreacting.

"That's why you're naked too?" Taeil teased softly, changing the topic - he put down his yellow iPhone, always thankful to Jaehyun for always accepting him in whatever situation. Even in the time where Taeil absolutely makes no sense.
